Don’t you hate it when the worst person you know has a good idea?
More Americans would protest this then they would protest actual executions lol
I think it might be seen as an epic grimdark reboot, and the same treatbrains would expect a sequel where all the murdered characters are now murderfucking zombies that are murderfucking whatever the first movie didn’t have time to slaughter yet.
All I can think about is the number of deathly hallows tattoos in that crowd.
Sorry but this sucks, Haz sucks, it’s stupid, you can detect the same edgelord excitement in his plan as the 14 year old who writes essays for school about torturing and killing Barney but in doing so reveals that he is still very emotionally invested in Barney
I would simply invent and deploy a new type of professional mingler who would go around striking up convos with people leaving marvel movies, prompt them to describe the movie, and adopt that bullying affect of “oh yeah? sounds sick dude, (snickering) 3 hours long huh?”
(streaming services are the problem here, capitalist alienation strikes again)
Haz has the same energy as Sid, the bully from Toy Story. He wants play with your toys so badly but he plans to also blow them up with firecrackers.
Meh, weak. When I’m supreme leader I’m going to make all professional athletes kiss and hold hands before the match. Nascar drivers have to use tongue.
probably his funniest tweet
Me roped into this nonsense because of my vocal approval of One Piece:
Scoff this meeting could have been an emailI love the idea that the state is going to enforce an “official canon” for Marvel and Star Wars. Like if you write a fan fic about Luke and Han having a gay love affair and try and pass it as canon the Fiction NKVD is gonna bust down your door.
to get a copy I assume
Of course comrade, we need to review all the material we confiscate to make sure it lines up with official state canon.
“And that official canon, because it’s so grimdark and edgy, will make the edgelords even more excited and they will demand even gorier remakes!”
First rule of capeshit is that heroes (and villains) never die, and even if they do, someone will take their capes*, so there’s infinite material for sequels.
*This of course sounds worse once you get older than 13 and understand it’s because character development is expensive and not always successful, though 90% of DC universe and 80% of Marvel seems to make the latter point entirely moot.
Even Harley Quinn can’t be allowed to permanently move on from the Jonkler and actually be happy with Poison Ivy; that has to get reset too.
Sorry but no exceptions
Harley Quinn is a Romanov?
Well iirc she did talked few times she would like to be treated like a princess?
We can treat some comrades like princesses. As a treat.
That wouldn’t be princess treatment though, that would be comrade treatment.
I don’t think Marvel, Star Wars and Harry Potter fans are really “edgy grimdark” fandoms, if anything they’re the opposite.
I think you’re lumping in Rick and Morty fans in with everyone else, in my experience they tend not to care for Marvel or Potter much, and only care for the OG Star Treks.
I disagree for the most part and I present as exhibits the highly popular “Marvel Zombies” fad as well as, coincidentially, the similar “Death Troopers” thing in Star Wars. The Old Republic MMORPG used to reek of “rakghoul” events and such space zombies barfing over everyone as part of rather hyped events in that game that made it insufferable for a while.

Also, Harry Potter had edgy fanfic spinoffs, including “Methods of Rationality” (that also had zombies, including
with Herminone’s zombie!)You know WAY more about these fandoms than I do, more than most FANS I know do. Your anti-fandom seems to have more fervor than most of the fandom has.
In this particular case, it’s because I am a jaded ex fan of much of the above.
You wanted evidence of those fandoms being receptive to edginess, so I gave it to you.
I read HPMoR back in the day, I don’t remember any grimdark shit, but he was still writing it when I stopped reading so I’m not surprised to hear it went that direction.
It was so weird to hear the author of HPMoR come up in a recent TrueAnon episode, but not at all surprising to learn that he’s an ai grifter these days.
I don’t remember any grimdark shit
There’s a pretty long and exhaustive comprehensive list of the grimdark shit in it, especially as it proceeds to its Randian “the entire cosmos is just a bunch of exploitable resource nodes for the taking” fever dream ending, but what I already mentioned was (CW: necrophilia, CSAM)
spoiler
the part where Herminone is killed but magically reanimated in a way where Big Yud dares the reader to enter his magical fetish realm by narratively stating how Hermione’s magic zombie lacks volition but can still responds positively to sex and his fucked up “rationalist” version of Harry Potter is cool with that and very horny for the zombie.
I swear in the US that we never culturally left the 90’s.
Hell, the modern CHUD seems to pride themselves in essentially being the embodiment of dumb 90’s ‘tude.
entire brand identity is Xtreme 90s with “dae le sex dae le 69 fart sound here” arrested development.
Add in Eric Cartman and you have yourself a deal.
And Richard Mortimer
I approve
Ugh. This is my exact ideology. Is this what it feels like when libs realize they think the same things about Russians that Hitler did?
Trick question: libs aren’t capable of such introspection

I think star wars and marvel are cool and they should be allowed to exist post revolutionspoiler
after IP is dismantled and anyone is allowed to do whatever they want with them, copyright and canon are a fuck
while i want a blossoming off original art in such a world i also really want to see where artists take things when everything becomes public domain.
like how theres some really amazing fanfics out there that put the original works to shame. but with a crew of thousands of dedicated people working on it and huge grants from the State Art Fund
Star Wars I agree but I think Marvel slop should go. Even pre-cinematic universe it was going downhill.
Can we at least keep based Magneto the Nazi hunter around? I will never get tired of him murdering the shit out of fascists in the comics
Alright fine, the X Men and maybe Guardians get a pass
If it makes it any better, I’m 100% okay with dropping mossad mutant Sabra
Sabra
They had the opportunity to call her mutant nickname “Hasbara” and just blew it like that.
Bad excuse to post this goober please let me dodge this part of Twitter 😰 I follow anti-imperialist Arab accounts and Infrared is trying to gain notoriety with them. Hinkle is sidling up to Yemen and Venezuela. He’s not a broken clock they have a strategy to use you guys as a relay.
It’s weak.
Instead they should be shown to be hollow facades who can’t even bring joy into the world, the characters all get wiped out when the decaying infrastructure collapses under the fury of a category 6 hurricane.

Pretty sure they already did that in Loki
But it’s still going
I think this is lame and stupid edgelord bullshit for babies.
Sometimes, some people try so hard to be “mature” that they are very immature about it, like wanting a violent death for cartoon characters.
Literally Happy Tree Friends lmao
That was a bad time; a lot of people I knew were really into Happy Tree Friends for a while and kept showing me clips of it.
One was enough to get the idea, but for a time it seemed like there was an endless appetite for “what if cute thing that’s friendly for all ages… but horribly murdered?”
:“Your attention please, fellow adults! I have an announcement to make!”
“Barney bad. That is all.”
“I want to (violence) and (violence) and (gore) and (post-humous additional desecration of mutilated corpse) because a purple dinosaur told kids to love each other.”
